The brother of a man accused of killing Milford’s Matthew Denice with a pickup truck is expected to be arraigned in Milford District Court tomorrow on a charge connected to the August accident.

Pablo Guaman, 37, of 26 Water St., Apt. 2, will face a charge of allowing an unlicensed driver to use the pickup truck, according to court documents and Paul Jarvey, a spokesman for the Worcester County District Attorney’s Office.

Police say Pablo Guaman’s brother, Nicolas, an illegal immigrant from Ecuador, was driving the Ford F-150 when it struck a motorcycle driven by Matthew Denice, 23. The truck dragged Denice’s body a quarter of a mile.

Nicolas Guaman, whose last name is listed as Dutan in court records, pleaded not guilty in November in Worcester Superior Court to charges of second-degree murder, manslaughter while driving, motor vehicle homicide (while under the influence), wanton or reckless behavior causing risk of serious bodily injury to a child, leaving the scene after a collision causing death, failing to stop for police and driving without a license.

The night of the Aug. 20 incident, Pablo Guaman went to the police station, inquiring about his brother’s arrest. He told police he was the owner of the pickup and that his brother was allowed to use it that day, Officer Angel Arce wrote in a report included in court documents.
